I use the latest git tree as well as 2.6.35, 2.6.32 (both ubuntu lucid) and various 26-rc candidates with the same problem on Dell E4310 laptop: screen blanks when getting to X start. System works ok, but without screen (switch to text console does not help).

The current set of patches we have for eDP are available at

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ickle/drm-intel.git

in the drm-intel-next branch. Jesse insists that he has a working eDP machine on his desk, so maybe there is hope yet. -Chris
